Opposition MP Hasnat Abdullah has strongly criticized the proposed budget for the 2026-27 fiscal year during the ongoing budget session in the National Parliament. He labeled the budget as anti-people and deemed it unrealistic in terms of implementation. Abdullah stated the budget’s impact – whether it will uplift or oppress the general public – should be determined by the people themselves. Participating in the general discussion on the proposed budget, the MP for Cumilla-4 expressed his concerns regarding its potential consequences. Details of his full speech were not immediately available, but his initial remarks signal significant opposition to the government’s financial plan. This criticism highlights potential challenges to the budget’s passage and implementation within the thirteenth National Parliament.
